Optional

string

If an alert policy that was active has no data for this long, any open incidents will close.

alertStrategy.notificationChannelStrategy

Optional

list (object)

Control over how the notification channels in 'notification_channels' are notified when this alert fires, on a per-channel basis.

alertStrategy.notificationChannelStrategy[]

Optional

object

alertStrategy.notificationChannelStrategy[].notificationChannelNames

Optional

list (string)

The notification channels that these settings apply to. Each of these correspond to the name field in one of the NotificationChannel objects referenced in the notification_channels field of this AlertPolicy. The format is 'projects/[PROJECT_ID_OR_NUMBER]/notificationChannels/[CHANNEL_ID]'.

Optional

string

alertStrategy.notificationChannelStrategy[].renotifyInterval

Optional

string

The frequency at which to send reminder notifications for open incidents.

alertStrategy.notificationRateLimit

Optional

object

Required for alert policies with a LogMatch condition. This limit is not implemented for alert policies that are not log-based.

alertStrategy.notificationRateLimit.period

Optional

string

Not more than one notification per period.

combiner

Required

string

How to combine the results of multiple conditions to determine if an incident should be opened. Possible values: ["AND", "OR", "AND_WITH_MATCHING_RESOURCE"].

conditions

Required

list (object)

A list of conditions for the policy. The conditions are combined by AND or OR according to the combiner field. If the combined conditions evaluate to true, then an incident is created. A policy can have from one to six conditions.

conditions[]

Required

object

conditions[].conditionAbsent

Optional

object

A condition that checks that a time series continues to receive new data points.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations

Optional

list (object)

Specifies the alignment of data points in individual time series as well as how to combine the retrieved time series together (such as when aggregating multiple streams on each resource to a single stream for each resource or when aggregating streams across all members of a group of resources). Multiple aggregations are applied in the order specified.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[]

Optional

object

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[].alignmentPeriod

Optional

string

The alignment period for per-time series alignment. If present, alignmentPeriod must be at least 60 seconds. After per-time series alignment, each time series will contain data points only on the period boundaries. If perSeriesAligner is not specified or equals ALIGN_NONE, then this field is ignored. If perSeriesAligner is specified and does not equal ALIGN_NONE, then this field must be defined; otherwise an error is returned.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[].crossSeriesReducer

Optional

string

The approach to be used to combine time series. Not all reducer functions may be applied to all time series, depending on the metric type and the value type of the original time series. Reduction may change the metric type of value type of the time series.Time series data must be aligned in order to perform cross- time series reduction. If crossSeriesReducer is specified, then perSeriesAligner must be specified and not equal ALIGN_NONE and alignmentPeriod must be specified; otherwise, an error is returned. Possible values: ["REDUCE_NONE", "REDUCE_MEAN", "REDUCE_MIN", "REDUCE_MAX", "REDUCE_SUM", "REDUCE_STDDEV", "REDUCE_COUNT", "REDUCE_COUNT_TRUE", "REDUCE_COUNT_FALSE", "REDUCE_FRACTION_TRUE", "REDUCE_PERCENTILE_99", "REDUCE_PERCENTILE_95", "REDUCE_PERCENTILE_50", "REDUCE_PERCENTILE_05"].

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[].groupByFields

Optional

list (string)

The set of fields to preserve when crossSeriesReducer is specified. The groupByFields determine how the time series are partitioned into subsets prior to applying the aggregation function. Each subset contains time series that have the same value for each of the grouping fields. Each individual time series is a member of exactly one subset. The crossSeriesReducer is applied to each subset of time series. It is not possible to reduce across different resource types, so this field implicitly contains resource.type. Fields not specified in groupByFields are aggregated away. If groupByFields is not specified and all the time series have the same resource type, then the time series are aggregated into a single output time series. If crossSeriesReducer is not defined, this field is ignored.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[].groupByFields[]

Optional

string

conditions[].conditionAbsent.aggregations[].perSeriesAligner

Optional

string

The approach to be used to align individual time series. Not all alignment functions may be applied to all time series, depending on the metric type and value type of the original time series. Alignment may change the metric type or the value type of the time series.Time series data must be aligned in order to perform cross- time series reduction. If crossSeriesReducer is specified, then perSeriesAligner must be specified and not equal ALIGN_NONE and alignmentPeriod must be specified; otherwise, an error is returned. Possible values: ["ALIGN_NONE", "ALIGN_DELTA", "ALIGN_RATE", "ALIGN_INTERPOLATE", "ALIGN_NEXT_OLDER", "ALIGN_MIN", "ALIGN_MAX", "ALIGN_MEAN", "ALIGN_COUNT", "ALIGN_SUM", "ALIGN_STDDEV", "ALIGN_COUNT_TRUE", "ALIGN_COUNT_FALSE", "ALIGN_FRACTION_TRUE", "ALIGN_PERCENTILE_99", "ALIGN_PERCENTILE_95", "ALIGN_PERCENTILE_50", "ALIGN_PERCENTILE_05", "ALIGN_PERCENT_CHANGE"].

conditions[].conditionAbsent.duration

Required*

string

The amount of time that a time series must fail to report new data to be considered failing. Currently, only values that are a multiple of a minute--e.g. 60s, 120s, or 300s --are supported.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.filter

Optional

string

A filter that identifies which time series should be compared with the threshold.The filter is similar to the one that is specified in the MetricService.ListTimeSeries request (that call is useful to verify the time series that will be retrieved / processed) and must specify the metric type and optionally may contain restrictions on resource type, resource labels, and metric labels. This field may not exceed 2048 Unicode characters in length.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.trigger

Optional

object

The number/percent of time series for which the comparison must hold in order for the condition to trigger. If unspecified, then the condition will trigger if the comparison is true for any of the time series that have been identified by filter and aggregations.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.trigger.count

Optional

integer

The absolute number of time series that must fail the predicate for the condition to be triggered.

conditions[].conditionAbsent.trigger.percent

Optional

float

The percentage of time series that must fail the predicate for the condition to be triggered.

Required*

string

A logs-based filter.

conditions[].conditionMatchedLog.labelExtractors

Optional

map (key: string, value: string)

A map from a label key to an extractor expression, which is used to extract the value for this label key. Each entry in this map is a specification for how data should be extracted from log entries that match filter. Each combination of extracted values is treated as a separate rule for the purposes of triggering notifications. Label keys and corresponding values can be used in notifications generated by this condition.

conditions[].conditionMonitoringQueryLanguage

Optional

object

A Monitoring Query Language query that outputs a boolean stream.

conditions[].conditionMonitoringQueryLanguage.duration

Required*

string

The amount of time that a time series must violate the threshold to be considered failing. Currently, only values that are a multiple of a minute--e.g., 0, 60, 120, or 300 seconds--are supported. If an invalid value is given, an error will be returned. When choosing a duration, it is useful to keep in mind the frequency of the underlying time series data (which may also be affected by any alignments specified in the aggregations field); a good duration is long enough so that a single outlier does not generate spurious alerts, but short enough that unhealthy states are detected and alerted on quickly.

conditions[].conditionMonitoringQueryLanguage.evaluationMissingData

Optional

string

A condition control that determines how metric-threshold conditions are evaluated when data stops arriving. Possible values: ["EVALUATION_MISSING_DATA_INACTIVE", "EVALUATION_MISSING_DATA_ACTIVE", "EVALUATION_MISSING_DATA_NO_OP"].

If this field is not empty, then it must be a valid Prometheus label name.

conditions[].conditionPrometheusQueryLanguage.duration

Optional

string

Alerts are considered firing once their PromQL expression evaluated to be "true" for this long. Alerts whose PromQL expression was not evaluated to be "true" for long enough are considered pending. The default value is zero. Must be zero or positive.

conditions[].conditionPrometheusQueryLanguage.evaluationInterval

Optional

string

How often this rule should be evaluated. Must be a positive multiple of 30 seconds or missing. The default value is 30 seconds. If this PrometheusQueryLanguageCondition was generated from a Prometheus alerting rule, then this value should be taken from the enclosing rule group.

      This sample is an amalgamation of policy samples found at https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/alerts/policies-in-json. It is meant to give an idea of what is possible rather than be a completely realistic alerting policy in and of itself.

      Combiner AND_WITH_MATCHING_RESOURCE
      While more general policies will use an OR combiner, triggering an incident when any of their conditions are met, AND combiners only trigger when all of their conditions are met, allowing for specification of very specific circumstances.
      AND_WITH_MATCHING_RESOURCE combiners go one step further and only trigger when all conditions are met for the same resource, in this case, a GCE instance.

      Metric-threshold condition
      The first condition in this policy, "CPU usage is extremely high", tests average CPU usage in a group of VMs.

      Rate-of-change condition
      The second condition in this policy, "CPU usage is increasing at a high rate" tests if the rate of CPU utilization is increasing rapidly.

      Process-health condition
      The third condition in this policy, "Process 'nginx' is not running", tests if there is no process matching the string nginx and running as user www available for more than 5 minutes.

      All together, this policy would monitor for a situation where the lack of an 'nginx' process caused a spike in CPU usage in the same instance and elevated CPU usage across all instances in its group.

      This sample is a synthesis of policy samples found at https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/alerts/policies-in-json. It is meant to give an idea of what is possible rather than be a completely realistic alerting policy in and of itself.

      Combiner OR
      OR combiner policies will trigger an incident when any of their conditions are met. They should be considered the default for most purposes.

      Uptime-check conditions
      The first three conditions in this policy involve an uptime check with the ID 'uptime-check-for-google-cloud-site'.

      The first condition, "Failure of uptime check_id uptime-check-for-google-cloud-site", tests if the uptime check fails.
      The second condition, "SSL Certificate for google-cloud-site expiring soon", tests if the SSL certificate on the Google Cloud site will expire in under 15 days.

      Metric-absence condition
      The third condition in this policy, "Uptime check running" tests if the aforementioned uptime check is not written to for a period of approximately an hour.
      Note that unlike all the conditions so far, the condition used here is conditionAbsent, because the test is for the lack of a metric.

      Metric ratio
      The fourth and last condition in this policy, "Ratio of HTTP 500s error-response counts to all HTTP response counts", tests that 5XX error codes do not make up more than half of all HTTP responses. It targets a different set of metrics through appengine.
      
      All together, this policy would monitor for a situation where any of the above conditions threatened the health of the website.
